MLA Survey of Hiring by Modern Language Departments

This study, conducted for the Modern Language Association (MLA), surveyed a sample of approximately 2,500 English and modern-language departments in colleges and universities in the United States and Canada to obtain information on the outcome of searches for new faculty members in the 2003 - 2004 academic year.

The sample included both MLA Job Information List (JIL) advertisers and non-advertisers. Using a mixed-mode methodology of a Web-based survey with a paper questionnaire follow-up, the data collection effort resulted in completed interviews with 1,014 sample members.

Survey on Evaluating Scholarship for Tenure and Promotion

This study, in which we contacted 1,350 chairs in degree-granting language departments in universities and colleges was conducted for the Modern Language Association (MLA).

Sample members were asked to complete a Web-based questionnaire on issues related to tenure and promotion in institutions of higher learning. A PDF file was attached to the e-mail request to respond to the survey, allowing respondents the opportunity to reference a paper questionnaire and complete it if they preferred.
